What is your view of the synoptic Gospels?
All originate from a common lost shared text, with variations for the intended audience.
Why are the synoptic gospels called synoptic?
A:The word synoptic means 'seen with the same eye'. The synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke not only agree moderately well on the story of Jesus, but when laid in parallel and viewed synoptically can be seen to have a close literary relationship. New Testament scholars have established that Mark was the first gospel to be written, and that Matthew and Luke were substantially based on it, with Matthew containing some 90 per cent of the verses in Mark, often in exactly the same words in the Greek language.AnswerOne of the meanings of the word "synoptic" is "taking the same point of view." Since the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke share a great deal of content and present a similar order of events (while John's gospel is quite different in style and content), the first three are called "synoptic."
What does synoptikos mean?
Synoptikos is a Greek word that means "seeing together" or "seeing with a common view." It is often used in the context of the Synoptic Gospels to refer to the similarities and shared perspectives among the books of Matthew, Mark, and Luke in the Bible.
Which gospels are synoptic gospels?
A:The first three gospels are often referred to as the synoptic gospels. This is because the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke have many of the same stories, often in same sequence (although not always). There are even ocasions where they use the exact same wording. A:The Synoptic Gospels are Matthew, Mark and Luke. They are called synoptic because they are intriguingly similar and intriguingly different. The most common theory is that Mark is the oldest of these, and Matthew and Luke in various ways used Mark along with other material to create their individual narratives.Scholars believe that this other material consisted of material unique to each of Matthew and Luke (ie material they wrote themselves - called 'M' and 'L') and further material that is common to both Matthew and Luke but not found in Mark. This material consists mostly of the sayings of Jesus and scholars now believe that this came from a now lost source called 'Q' (from the German 'Quelle' meaning 'source').Other theories - for example, that Matthew (or Luke) is the oldest Gospel and Mark wrote his account later leaving outchunks of material was once a common belief, but modern textual criticism suggests that Mark was the first gospel to have been written with additions made by Luke and Matthew.
What does a Synoptic view look like?
A synopsis is a summary. It does not have a prescribed form. A synoptic view should provide a clarified overview of its subject. A common example is the synoptic weather chart, where a mass of data are represented as isobars and fronts, which are the forecasters interpretation and summary of the observational data.
What is a unwritten law that evolves from the customs and traditions of society?
An unwritten law that evolves from the customs and traditions of society is called a "common law."
Was Jesus killed on Christmas or Easter?
There is conflicting evidence in the New Testament with regard to the death of Jesus. The synoptic Gospels imply that it was after the Passover, while the Gospel of John says he was crucified just prior to the Passover and gave up his spirit approximately at the time the Passover was to be slaughtered. Therefore we can conclude that while the Gospels may disagree on an exact time for Jesus' death, it is reasonably discernible that the purpose of the Gospel writers was to emphasize the significance of Passover observance. For it is their mention of the feast where they ultimately find common ground. ----

What are the characteristics of the Synoptic Gospels?
A:All three gospels were originally anonymous until the second-century Church Fathers attributed them to the persons whose names they now bear. The characteristic of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke that results in them being termed 'synoptic gospels' is their similarity, not only of content but often of the same words in the Greek language. When laid in parallel and read synoptically ('with the same eye') it is clear that there is a literary relationship amongst these gospels. New Testament scholars have established that Mark was the first to be written, and that Matthew and Luke were substantially based on that original New Testament gospel. It can also be seen that Matthew and Luke both relied on another document, now known as the hypothetical 'Q' document, for sayings material attributed to Jesus.There is evidence that Mark was, in turn, based partly on the epistles of Paul, and perhaps Greek beliefs. This gospel is based around a framework chiastic-parallel structure of immense scope and a complexity beyond those found in the writings of less gifted writers.
